Should Kobe play in the summer league?

It's gonna take more than just a few preseason games to get him into game shape, thoughts?

I don't think he's even in playing shape right now.

Do you not see the problem with an over antsy guy without a foul out rule trying to make a name? Why risk it? It's why no vets play in the SL

He's healthy that doesn't mean he can necessarily play. Its like if someone put you on a treadmill after being sedentary for 8 months, you'd be panting like a dog too.

I believe you can foul out in SL play now-10 fouls and you're done. I think Kobe could give Dianthus Moonpieus a good run for the Summer League MVP award if he gets enough shots.
